Trumps media summit was a fucking firing squad

[Arjuna]

Love it -

Donald Trump scolded media big shots during an off-the-record Trump Tower sitdown on Monday, sources told The Post.

“It was like a f–ing firing squad,” one source said of the encounter.

“Trump started with [CNN chief] Jeff Zucker and said ‘I hate your network, everyone at CNN is a liar and you should be ashamed,’ ” the source said.

A second source confirmed the fireworks.

“The meeting took place in a big board room and there were about 30 or 40 people, including the big news anchors from all the networks,” the other source said.

“Trump kept saying, ‘We’re in a room of liars, the deceitful dishonest media who got it all wrong.’ He addressed everyone in the room calling the media dishonest, deceitful liars. He called out Jeff Zucker by name and said everyone at CNN was a liar, and CNN was [a] network of liars,” the source said.

Good.

 

[Mr. terzmo]

I concur

Why should Trump change his tactics towards the corrupt media now? I really believe he should tell the media that the White House Press Corp will consist of Breitbart News and all other media outlets are to get their information from them. Fuck 'em 'till they bleed. They have shown no interest in compromise or any desire to change their slanted reporting.

 

[Podmonkey]

Should have been an actual firing squad if you ask me.

 

[Truebeliever]

I have to admit, if it's true, I love it!

 

[Dr. Evil]

I hope he had play doh and puppies on hand for their therapy.

 

[masterswimmer]

They'll spin that meeting to their agenda as well.

 

[Calculon]

Good for him. They're gonna savage him any chance they get so I love that he has gone on the offensive vs roll over and take it like the rest of the GOP.

100000% the media isn't going to all of a sudden treat him fairly and play nice. They hate him and everything he stands for and trump knows it. They have their propaganda to spew pushing their agenda. Trump probably realized they are never going to be fair to him so might as well sit them down and lay the law right off the bat.

Love it.

Fuck the Lame Stream Media, and the Evil Bitch they rode in on.

I hope Breitbart starts a national tee-vee network - that would really piss them off.

 

[Uninformed and Compliant]

Look. If you like your Whitehouse Press Pool, you can keep your Whitehouse Press Pool.

... and I love that this was followed by Trump posting his "first orders of business" directly on the internet, lol.

 

[Plater1]

Those pricks had it coming.

It must have been a great feeling to ram their smug self-assured smiling faces up their asses. If they haven't yet realized that press conferences aren't going to be a circle jerk with POTUS as pivot man anymore, they're more stupid than I thought. And I think they're VERY stupid.

 

[Podmonkey]

Imagining Obama as the pivot man has me roaring on the floor!

 

[holdover]

I don't recall CNN ever stating one good thing about Trump. They had him behind in every single poll .Right Now CNN's credibility ranks up there with the FBI.The guys who took six months to go through 33,000 emails and only a week to go through 650,000 emails.

If you think about it.........it makes perfect sense. Reminds me of a joke about Monica Lewinsky taking a blue dress to the dry cleaners.......

 

[Phauxtoe]

If those bastards want to only pretend to be fair they should be called out

 

[GOPerfect]

He can do what he wants to the media. He is not there for them, they are there for him. I would love for him to completely turn off those who were so wrong during the campaign. The ones that lied each and everyday. Allow them in the press room, but make it a point to never call on them. If he does call on them, do not use their names, just point and say"Yeah, you, you're next".

 

[Celt]

I find it hilarious that he scolded them..

 

[GOPerfect]

Like children!

I find it hilarious that he scolded them..

 

[Podmonkey]

They certainly behave like children, dishonest spoiled little brats.

 

[X340]

Obummer kissed their asses trump kicked em..Face to face man to man or should I say man to weasel.

How things have changed.

Reminds me of my Jr High Principal.

SO noticed that Martha Raddatz was not on the news tonight. Maybe she was unable to face the camera and was off someplace crying after her dress down by DT

In a way, he can actually thank them for helping him get elected. The public saw through the hypocrisy and voiced their displeasure in the voting booth.

I believe this whole heartedly. If not for their blatantly obvious bias and attempted manipulation of the population, people might have actually believed the bullshit they were putting out. But because they made it so incredibly obvious, even the blindest of sheep saw through it. I thank them for waking up America even though they didn't intend to.
